Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

People are weird.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

    Special props to Betty for being the only one with access to the backend

    I have no idea what this means so I’m going to assume it’s so so dirty.

    This is new — the page keeps having to reload on my iPad (I get that “this page had to be automatically reloaded” message at the top of the browser page in Safari). I have not had this problem with the redesign until tonight.

    “Follow me—follow me to freedom!” I knew it was going to be that one.

    Those SportsCenter ads are the best. I dare not go to YouTube or I will be there all night.

    As one of the few who praised the change (and asked that tags be at the bottom of posts…) I feel ignored with all your railing at the bitchers, Cole. Not that they don’t deserve it, but fuck!

    Good move making the author and tag line black. (And on tags, cuz you want it: tags are on par with indexes, with footnotes. They by their very nature *want* to be at the end of posts. But I don’t care.

    Thank you, John. I truly appreciate your noble efforts to make things better. You of course know, that part of this is the joy of suffering passive aggressive slights and inuendos… but then you know — you are a progressive.

    Now no longer the whitest blog on the interwebs. Yeehaw!

    Anyway, things be faster and for that I am grateful. Also, too, the forward/back arrows, once I discovered them. Supah!

    WTF is the fucking ad atop the page “STOP THE DNC FROM HIRING ILLEGAL ALIENS!” with a pic of DWS, who hardly anybody knows? Weirdest political ad ever, I can’t begin to guess who’s paying.

    Is anyone else having problems scrolling down the page on an iPad? I scroll down two or three posts and then it freezes, refuses to budge until I refresh the page. And page load times are definitely worse since all the “improvements”.

    I appreciate the addition of time of posting on the subhead, but still miss a link to comments at the end of the post. Don’t most people read a post first and then decide about reading or writing comments? As it is now, you must scroll back to the beginning of the post to get to the comments.

    @NotMax: Fun.

    But then, I seem to enjoy every single form of music that exists, since I’ve yet to hear one I don’t enjoy – in some capacity.

    Some more than others, of course.
